## Customs Duties & Import Taxes
Import duties, taxes, and customs clearance fees are **not included** in the product price or shipping cost.
These charges, if applicable, are determined by your country's customs authority and are the responsibility of the customer.
Customs regulations vary by country, and we are unable to estimate or guarantee these charges in advance.
## Antique & Handcrafted Items
Many of our products are one-of-a-kind antiques or handcrafted works made by skilled Japanese artisans.
Natural signs of age, variations in texture, color, and craftsmanship are part of each item's authenticity and should not be considered defects.

For international orders, this product will be shipped with the 12 handcrafted incense sticks only.
